        Welcome to Ajax Data Controls Project
    </span>
</p>
<p>
    The Ajax Data Controls is a <a target="_blank" href="http://dotnetslackers.com">DotNetSlackers</a> project.
    Developed on top of <strong>Asp.net Ajax Extension</strong> the main goal of this project 
    is to provide rich set of data controls for <strong>Client Centric Development Model</strong>. 
    Since the data controls of Asp.net like <em>GridView, DataList, Repeater</em> etc does not have 
    any Client Side Object Model thus it is not possible to work with these controls with Web Service / 
    Page Methods call. The included controls exposes same API in the client side as the Asp.net version 
    with few more enhancements. Curently the project contains the following controls:
</p>
<ul>
    <li>GridView</li>
    <li>DataList</li>
    <li>Repeater</li>
    <li>Pager</li>
</ul>
